Spanish sounds faster than English because the words are longer in Spanish, with many syllables, whereas in English most of the words have only one syllable. For instance, to say "Can I borrow your book, please?" (7 syllables) you would say "Puedes prestarme tu libro, por favor?" (11 syllables). The same sentence in both languages takes the same time to pronounce, but in Spanish you have to say more syllables, and therefore it sounds faster.

[@rowanjoy419]

actually, the fastest languages are spanish and Japanese cause both language don't usually put two consonants together like other languages, so ends up as you say having more syllables and that makes it easier to pronounced.

[@theirishviking9278]

Which considering English's basic grammar and word creation comes from German is funny Most new German words are 3 or 4 words together as a single word English has this too from time to time but we add the spaces Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) is just Geldautomat which when you directly translate it is I believe Cash Car Machine (Germans not my best language so that might be wrong)

[@junovzla]

@@theirishviking9278 it's more "automatic cash machine" because the auto which means "car" is just a clipping of automobile, auto means that it can do it by itself (it can move by itself) so geldautomat is just a machine that gives cash by itself without any help

Spaniard and philologist here. The Mexican and Spanish girls are a bit haughty (some of these girls seem out of touch with the linguistic reality. It may be a generational thing). First of all, there are many dialects in both Mexico and Spain, which are very different from the “standard” language. When it comes to Spain, there is this big misconception that everybody speaks Castilian, which is not true. For example, Andalusian, the regional variant spoken in Southern Spain, is one of the richest and most interesting dialects, linguistically speaking. It had the biggest influence in American Spanish, and that’s why it is the most similar. As a matter of fact, Andalusian, Canarian, and American Spanish are what we call Atlantic Spanish. Unfortunately, due to political and historical reasons, Andalusian, and its speakers, has been marginalized, denied recognition, and often ridiculed, while other variants of Spanish have been privileged. Speaking a regional variant of the Spanish language allows you to communicate with 500 million native speakers like you, while sharing the uniqueness and richness of your own culture. It is prideworthy! ❤️

I’m a peruvian born and raised (been living in the US for the past 15 years), and I have to disagree with the comment about depression. Depression is rampant in Latin America, and you can see it everywhere. The problem is in our culture and society, mental illness is still a very taboo subject, and telling someone you suffer from depression will automatically make you an outcast, and could also lead to “repercussions” to your direct family (one of Latino’s favorite sport is gossip). We have been taught from very young age that you don’t talk about this stuff, and instead you have to bottle everything up. I was not able to openly talk about my depression until I moved to the US , and even then I was still afraid to speak about it with my family. But trust me, it is there, and millions of Latinos currently suffer from it

[@JamaicaZ160R1793010A]

Somehow that's not very surprising.

[@exoticraptor9436]

Gotta agree Its the same in Mexico (Mexican American here) where saying your depressed is either seen as a way to gain attention, it's not a real sickness, or "nomas ponte las pilas y se te quita". In my experience, its usually downplayed by older generations basically by saying "I had a much harder life and I turned out fine, stop complaining"

What you tend to notice is how each country speaks its own older dialect of Spanish based around the time of it's colonization, in some senses the Mexican Spanish is more anunciated and this might also be affected by the indiginous languages spoken that influence Spanish.

[@balamsosa7176]

The mexican girl failed to clarify that the mexican accent Fluffy does, is actually from north-west México; the second actor also does a northern accent but without the high-pitched voice, closer to that of Nuevo León or Tamaulipas. Like any other big country, México has hundreds of different accents, but for obvious reasons, the most known ones are from the north.

[@HectorAldanaUco]

The Mexican girl is clearly from the center of Mexico or maybe the Bajío zone, but for usa people, the accent they pick the most is the northern Mexican (Tamaulipas, Sonora,Baja California, Chihuahua) that has that inflexion, Speedy-Gonzalesly. My accent is waaaay different as I'm from Yucatán Peninsula,and also from the coast so we speak fast and with a little English h (sonido j) in every other word. Yucatán accent is very particular even for other Mexicans 😅

[@murielbalmori9441]

I was saying in another comment that we indeed have different accents but we like "sing" when we speak just like the second guy said, and between those accents the one from Yucatan is amazing. It feels like if someone from Jalisco elongated his vowels and talked sweeter

[@Fantasy0825]

The mexican girl what she fails to acknowledge is that Gabriel Iglesias is a mexican american comedian. Here at least in LA i have heard many talk like that because a lot of the immigrants from Mexico are from the poorer areas of mexico who tend to have that accent. Im aware that not all of Mexico talks like this. My mom and dad's family dont talk like this, but i do hear this accent a lot. Like girl its not that serious. Just laugh. Its an accent that if you here it you know its from Mexico. Just like how here in the US we have other accents, like a Southern accent. If they go to other parts of the world, they will know automatically its an ammerican accent. May not be my accent, but yes. Thats how a portion of Americans talk.

[@Gaboxxy96]

There are multiple accents in Bolivia, but yeah, they most definitely have a strong accent in most cases lol. The hispanic accent that in my opinion is the closes to being a "neutral" accent is actually the Bogotá accent in Colombia.

[@lissandrafreljord7913]

You mean without the cadence of an Italian? Argentines already speak with an Italian cadence, at least those with the Rioplatense variety. I do hear Bolivians from the east sound closer to Argentines and Paraguayans using words like boludo, some times conjugating with vos, and aspirating their S. Those from the sierra sound sort of Mexican-ish, with a more nasal, high pitched intonation, like when they say "yaaaaa," while also pronouncing all the S, and using an unhealthy amount of diminutives.

[@danielleespinoza5358]

Of course the Argentinian and the Bolivian were the ones saying us Chileans don't speak fast just "wrong" and "weirdly" smh it is a known fact that we speak very fast among spanish speakers (maybe not the fastest but who cares? we still get that A LOT) and i think they just didn't want to give it to us because we have some beef lmaooo sibling rivalry i would like to say (maybe that's a sugarcoating it a little tho) Vecina argentina nosotros hablamos "mal" entre nosotros no más, pero por lo menos podemos sacar los chilenismos, dejar de comernos algunas letras y todo cuando corresponde, ustedes cambiaron completamente el idioma y así hablan hasta en situaciones formales, en la tele y todo. La conjugación de los verbos, el sonido de la "Y/LL", etc. y el acento a la mayoría no se lo pueden sacar ni cuando tratan de hablar otro idioma. El otro día una amiga argentina fuera de broma dijo "I love you" como "Ai lov SHU" 💀💀💀 así que nada que envidiarle a su calidad de español xd Y del boliviano te lo acepto, porque ellos sí hablan bien jajaja pero la mala onda cuando dijo que hablábamos mal todos sabemos porqué es 🌊😅 pero que soporten 💋 jsjs LKM igual, al final del día somos culturas hermanas :)

[@dogetge7544]

I feel like Chilean have more slang words than other Spanish speaking countries. Not only that but they also utilize pauses and intonations that is quite unique to them, so at first it catches you off guard as it isn't something that you're used to. The thing with ceseo isn't country wide, some people from either the countryside, or interior as some call it, doesn't actually use it. It's just that the province that does use it has more population, hence why it is more often recognized as standard. But they also have "vos", and instead of using "tienes" use "tenes". If we get rid of all that they are still left with a italianish intonation. What you said with your friend is just particular of her. It is a mistake often made by begginers when they want to communicate in another language but they don't change their mindset, so they end up interpreting words with their native mannerism, instead of saying good riddance to it and embracing a new personality for the new language. The thing with Bolivia I partially disagree. First of all there is not such thing as neutral accent, or not natural at least. It would be like trying to extrapolate either transatlantic accent or Received Pronunciation to Spanish. The most similar thing would be Mexican dubbing without any slang, nobody speak like that except for voice actors due to directors prohibiting certain borrowed words like sandwich making it emparedado. It kinda became a small trend to talk like that ironically, at least certain influencers from social media but luckily it has mostly stopped. With Bolivian accent I think that the best description would be soft spoken if that makes sense, but you can clock them out from their accent easily.

[@javava31]

🙌🏻 I was thinking the exact same thing when the bolivian said we speak in the wrong way, Chilean spanish uses a lot of slang and we do tend to speak very fast in general, we don't have a strong accent so when we speak mostly it sound "fluid" (o como siempre lo describen hablamos cantadito 😂)

[@kevinchuang0320]

I took a Spanish course for one semester in college. I think Spanish has the following characteristics: 1. Spanish does not have long vowels like English. All vowels are short vowels. 2. There are a lot of liaisons in Spanish, and the voiceless consonants in English (such as p, t, and k) have become voiced consonants in Spanish. 3. In the case of the same meaning, Spanish sentences may have more syllables, which makes the speaker speak faster (Japanese has a similar situation). Maybe this is why Spanish sounds faster and louder.

[@charlenereames2173]

I maintain that the best way to explain the Argentine accent is that it's Spanish spoken with an Italian accent. Disagree if you like, but that's what it sounds like to me, not only as a Spanish speaker, but as a native English speaker. I definitely agree about the Venezuelan accent too. He started doing the impression and I heard my coworker when she and I speak in Spanish

[@dogetge7544]

Yeah, that pretty much sums it up.

[@rocklml6630]

@jasonrazojazoalthough the Mexican girl is a clearly classist she hates that accent bc Is mainly used by the lower class in the south or center that accent isn’t use by the middle class in any region of the country bc it’s a sign of low class or poverty for many Mexicans and it’s the accent that Mexican Americans know bc the ppl that inmigrate it’s ofc the poorest ppl of the country that’s why she gets so triggered when the comedian said that’s the Mexican accent ofc she don’t want to portray Mexico with the accent that it’s so looked down by Mexicans, also I’m sure the Bolivian guy had an idea about that so he wanted to bother her ur right Latinos DONT GET ALONG

I've learnt Spanish as my second foreign language and I've travelled to several Spanish-speaking countries. I'll say this: to me, the purest and most understandable version of Spanish, is Colombian. They just don't swallow the words, no carribean, French-like sounds (present in Venezuelan, for example) and the pace is just alright. After that I'd put some dialects used in Mexico, Guatemalan, Bolivian and Peruvian ones. At the very end I'd place the Chilean accent. Boy, it's just so weird and remote from other versions. At times I really struggled to understand them, like in the moment I was trying to pay for my food, and the salesclerck kept on asking me, how do I cancel? I was so confused to discover, that "cancelar" (to cancel) in Chile actually means "to pay" xD
